CVE-2026-103922: Ionic Capacitor path validation bypass in WebView

CVE-2026-103922 · Severity: critical · CVSS 9.3 · Published 2026-10-01

Capacitor is a cross-platform app development framework that runs web applications on mobile devices using native WebView components. A path validation flaw in the WebView navigation guard allows attackers to trick users into clicking malicious links that navigate to an internal HTTP proxy endpoint, enabling the attacker to inject content that can steal sensitive data like stored credentials and cookies from the application's origin.

Vendors: Maven, npm, Swift.

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the WebView navigation guard which validates a target URL's host and scheme but fails to validate the path component. An attacker can craft a URL that navigates a frame to the internal /_capacitor_http_interceptor_ proxy endpoint, allowing the native proxy to fetch an attacker-controlled URL and return the response as a document at the application's origin. This grants injected script access to same-origin storage, cookies, and Capacitor plugin capabilities. The issue persists even when CapacitorHttp is disabled.
